Possible to download all images?

Frank Woolf · March 27th, 2008, 02:59 AM

After my hosting company messed up all my sites they continued making things worse until I told them to stop trying to fix it. I am moving to another hosting company as soon as possible but my current hosting company have even screwed up the web host manager, all the control panels and FTP access so I can't do a full backup.

I have backed up the database from the vBulletin control panel but I believe the images will still be left in the data folders.

Is there any way I can use the Photopost Admin (or anything other than FTP) to download or copy all the images all the images from the data folders?

I just got access again so maybe I can backup the entire site.

glad your host got you all sorted out.

Thanks Chuck but all they did was give me access to my own sites again.

They made such a huge mess and were making it worse by repeatedly uploading old copies of the database that I told them to stop trying to fix all the problems they caused and I will do it myself.

Yeah hosts can mess things up for sure.

This is the third time in 14 years I have been with a great hosting company that was taken over by another company then turned into a nightmare.

I think I need to retire again

ah guess I have been lucky i have been with two companies olm.net and westhost.com and both are pretty mainstream and have never been taken over.
